I intentionally made the path hard-coded.
In former versions lisa tried to look for the config file in the kde config 
dirs, this lead to many problems, since the user has to take care that lisa 
is started (at boot time). With the former scheme there were options whether 
lisa should look in the kde-1-config-dirs (i.e. $KDEDIR/share/config and 
~/.kde/share/config I think)  or in kde-2-config-dirs (via kde-config) or in 
unix-style config dirs (i.e. /etc/lisarc and ~/.lisarc). Since there were to 
many points where things could go wrong I decided to support only /etc/lisarc 
and ~/.lisarc.
And since lisa doesn't link any Qt/KDE lib, it can't use the KDE classes 
therefor.

I still don't understand the problem.

Bye
